| 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | May 16, 2002 Stunning. More mouthfeel and a bigger, fruitier flavor than hefeweizen. Also manages to avoid the bad aftertaste and the drinking-a-loaf-of-bread feeling that other buckwheats (Rogue) have. I’m not sure they still make this. If they stopped, it’s a damn shame. dhurtubise (568), Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Aug 21, 2002 Updated: Mar 30, 2003Rerate 03/30/03: On tap at Cheval Blanc Brewpub this is one of the best beers I have ever had. It resonates with malt and belgian complexity and rich notes of buckweat... it danses on the tongue and lingers there for minutes after each sip. This is not the same beer as in the bottle.. Also this is NOT a german wheat as it is labled above:::::Previous rating: Disapointing, considering how much i had heard of this one. Faint rye malt flavour, "dirty" cheval blanc yeast and spices blen in this acceptable belgian styled ale. Just change the yeast guys. unibrouefan (124), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada

Really really spicy beer. Some ginger and pepper taste with a tiny fruity flavor. Great strong palate. Will take this beer again anytime. destroye7 (304), Melbourne, Australia

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 26, 2002 Golden colourd, hazy. Acidic lightly estery nose. Refreshing and fruity with somewhat soapy mouthfeel. Well balanced. This is just my type of beer, and I really liked it! onomatopee (34), Montréal, Quebec, Canada
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 28, 2008 Bière de couleur blonde, plutôt trouble. Elle possède des arômes invitantes de fruits, notamment d’agrumes, et d’épices. Goût de sarrasin, de coriandre et d’orange. Une de mes préférées en ce qui concerne les bières faites au Québec. egajdzis (3626), Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 22, 2005 Poured a hazy orange amber color with a medium sized, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, lots of spices (think juicy fruit gum), and light banana. Tasteof banana, more bubblegum, tons of spices, yeast and some tart wheatiness in the background. Really nice and spicy, thanks Steve! Boutip (2371), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 22, 2004 Bottle: Poured a medium brown color ale with generous head that goes away too quickly. Aroma is quite complex with definitely some buckwheat and a few spices (probably some coriander mix with something else) completed with Cheval Blanc usual yeast. Taste is quite complex with the roasted buckwheat hitting you right at the beginning and then coriander mixing quite nicely with the yeast. I waited a while until I could pick-up a fresh sample before rating this since I’ve noticed that it doesn’t aged very well.
